Preamylopectin Processing: A Mandatory Step for Starch Biosynthesis in Plants.

• Grégory Mouille, M. L. Maddelein, +4 authors Steven William Ball
• The Plant cell
• 1996

It has been generally assumed that the [alpha]-(1->4)-linked and [alpha]-(1->6)-branched glucans of starch are generated by the coordinated action of elongation (starch synthases) and branching… (More)

Physiology of starch storage in the monocellular alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

• Steven G Ball, Léon Dirick, André Decq, Jean-Claude Martiat, RenéF. Matagne
• 1990

Abstract In contrast with both log phase and stationary phase cells grown in undepleted medium, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was shown to accumulate large amounts of starch following nutrient starvation… (More)

Waxy Chlamydomonas reinhardtii: monocellular algal mutants defective in amylose biosynthesis and granule-bound starch synthase activity accumulate a structurally modified amylopectin.

• Brigitte Delrue, T Juan Andrés Fontaine, +6 authors S. A. Reynolds Ball
• Journal of bacteriology
• 1992

Amylose-defective mutants were selected after UV mutagenesis of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cells. Two recessive nuclear alleles of the ST-2 gene led to the disappearance not only of amylose but also… (More)

A Chlamydomonas reinhardtii low-starch mutant is defective for 3-phosphoglycerate activation and orthophosphate inhibition of ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase

• Christophe D'Hulst, Thérèse Marianne, Léon Dirick, Marc Fresnoy, Brigitte Delrue, André Decq
• Planta
• 1991

A low-starch mutant accumulating less than 5% of wild-type amounts was isolated after X-ray mutagenesis of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cells. The recessive st-1-1 defect segregated as a single… (More)

Toward an understanding of the biogenesis of the starch granule. Determination of granule-bound and soluble starch synthase functions in amylopectin synthesis.

• M. L. Maddelein, Nathalie Libessart, +7 authors S. A. Reynolds Ball
• The Journal of biological chemistry
• 1994

Plant starch synthesis can be distinguished from those of bacterial, fungal, and animal glycogen by the presence of multiple elongation (starch synthases) and branching enzymes. This complexity has… (More)

Control of starch composition and structure through substrate supply in the monocellular alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.

• N Van den Koornhuyse, Nathalie Libessart, +6 authors Steven William Ball
• The Journal of biological chemistry
• 1996

In Chlamydomonas, as in higher plants, synthesis of ADP glucose catalyzed by ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase is rate-limiting for the building of starch in the chloroplast. We have isolated disruptions… (More)

Toward an understanding of the biogenesis of the starch granule. Evidence that Chlamydomonas soluble starch synthase II controls the synthesis of intermediate size glucans of amylopectin.

• T Juan Andrés Fontaine, Christophe D'Hulst, +7 authors J P Bossu
• The Journal of biological chemistry
• 1993

Low starch mutants of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii were isolated after x-ray mutagenesis of wild-type strain 137C. The mutants accumulated 20-40% of the normal amount and displayed a 2-fold decrease of… (More)

Storage, Photosynthesis, and Growth: The Conditional Nature of Mutations Affecting Starch Synthesis and Structure in Chlamydomonas.

• Nathalie Libessart, M. L. Maddelein, +5 authors Steven William Ball
• The Plant cell
• 1995

Growth-arrested Chlamydomonas cells accumulate a storage polysaccharide that bears strong structural and functional resemblance to higher plant storage starch. It is synthesized by similar enzymes… (More)

Coordinate regulation of glycogen metabolism in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Induction of glycogen branching enzyme.

• Vicki Thon, Corinne Vigneron-Lesens, +5 authors John F. Cannon
• The Journal of biological chemistry
• 1992

The yeast glycogen branching enzyme (EC 2.4.1.18) is shown to be induced in batch culture simultaneously with the onset of intracellular glycogen accumulation. The branching enzyme structural gene… (More)

Storage, Photosynthesis, and Nature of Mutations Affecting Structure in Chlamydomonas Growth: The Conditional Starch Synthesis and

• Nathalie Libessart, M. L. Maddelein, +4 authors Steven Ballb
• 1995

Growth-arrested Chlamydomonas cells accumulate a storage polysaccharide that bears strong structural and functional resemblance to higher plant storage starch. It is synthesized by similar enzymes… (More)
